Title: Late Crappy Indy Coverage Post by: ZLTFUL on September 30, 2009, 11:05:55 AM Kiss my teabag Zoom. [cheeky]
I have no profound words of wisdom...nor do I have any exciting stories other than I was giddy as a schoolgirl all weekend long. Met Rossi, Lorenzo, Toseland, Edwards, Hayden, Capirossi, Vermulen, Talmesci, Schwantz, Aoyama, Simoncelli, and a vast assortment of umbrella girls... I took 2686 pictures. Here is a small selection of the pics I took...

Got Rossi to Autograph my Dreamtime replica. Colin and Toseland both signed my paddock pass, ticket, and my Roadracer X magazine articles about them. Kevin Schwantz signed my ticket pouch on my lanyard and talked with my roomie and I after the race for around 20 minutes. Saw King Kenny but he was busy storming past the Yamaha hospitality area on his way to grumble at someone. Also got to see him do his ceremony laps on the Mile. Saw Scott Russell, Randy Mamola and chatted with both Colin's dad, Nicky's mom, and had a LONG talk with Kel Carruthers (in fact missed all of FP2 for the 250s for that). HUGE props to Monster and the Coke distributor in Indy for the invitation. Also thanks to the Hoosier Hooligans and Ducati NA for a great Ducati Island and a nice hospitality area. Saw alot of my Duc snob internet friends there. ;-) Colin came up to the suite for about 20 minutes but no one was really chatting with him so I walked over while he was signing posters and chatted with him. The guy seemed honestly interested in my track experiences. Anyway, I am babbling. I will continue to sort pics and post up the better ones that I find in the coming weeks. I am sure of one thing though...I need a bigger lens!!! Hehe. Title: Re: Late Crappy Indy Coverage Post by: zooom on September 30, 2009, 11:46:54 AM Kiss my teabag Zoom. [cheeky] rub it in....man...I am jealous...not of your teabag though! Title: Re: Late Crappy Indy Coverage Post by: mitt on September 30, 2009, 11:54:26 AM Better late than never! Nice pics.
mitt Title: Re: Late Crappy Indy Coverage Post by: ZLTFUL on September 30, 2009, 07:41:16 PM rub it in....man...I am jealous...not of your teabag though! Just had to poke you with a stick for the comment in the Imola thread. [laugh] The weekend was incredible. Thursday night, I found out that not only was Gabor and Hiroshi eating not more than 15 feet from me at Texas Roadhouse (along with the whole Scot Honda team) but Hiroshi was staying in the same hotel and I said hi to him in the lobby. Friday was rainy but worth it. Spent most of the day hanging out on the spectators mound outside of turn 10 and then inside of turn 10 after I convinced the Parts Unlimited security guy that he could let me in their area. There just is nothing like being there in person. ANd I have already starting kissing the Monster rep's ass for next year... |
